When the rich stop answering to anyone, corruption stops being the exception and becomes the system...
Too much wealth divorces most people from their humanity.
When wealth stops answering to conscience, it stops being wealth and becomes empire.
You can tell when a society crosses that line. The rich start calling self-preservation “innovation,” and the poor start thanking them for crumbs.
The Dark Triad isn’t a diagnosis anymore. It’s a résumé requirement for the ruling class.
They build temples to deregulation and call them think tanks. They sell the sickness as freedom.
But every system that worships profit over empathy eventually eats itself.
Thom, you’re so to the point, yet the topic seems so complicated to address; and at this point of firehose madness, I feel it ranks low on our to-do priorities to save our Union
